Other minor points - how do you open doors on these planes?  How do you make custom waypoints on flight plans? OK I'm still getting to grips with Little NavMap. Live Weather reporting on the ground and en route was non-existent in the sim (I do have AS P3D I guess). It reported 90 degrees F at SEQM (unheard of). FSTramp would be nice. Be good to have sensitivities back if we could get it in Controls settings.

But for the time being I'm a happy bunny (er... pilot). Thanks Asobo. MS was never fixed all the [word not allowed] in FSX even after 6 years when I finally deleted it from my hard drive.

Little nav map still not fully ready for msfs 2020. The sensitivity options missing is a head scratcher. How did they miss this one?

Removed unnecessary long quote.

Mind blown. It now seems like such a leap ahead of other sims visually. I can't wait for VR

Unlike other users, I haven't seen any improvement in loading times. The time it takes to load between choosing a takeoff and actually flying is still quite long for me and I don't think it's changed.

About the flightplan load Issue:

You have to remove the FPS Fix compiltly from your Community Folder, i did and now i am flying the 787 with the flightplan in the FMC and elswhere

so it worked for me..

 

Just to let you know with people who have this trouble also.

I think it has nothing to do with the A32NX or the B787-XE fix, mine still in there and could not see any problems right now.

Huge performance increase on my two year old PC. Now it is really nice to fly without any stutters or fps drops on High settings!

So far one hour into the flight I havent noted any stutters at all which is really positive compared to before patch performance.

 

 

Im a little bit disheartened by this patch. Yes, its nice that they implemented the FPS tweaks that the COMMUNITY already had figured out, including project lasso. So no more need for them. The a320 is worse after this patch. The 748 is worse (just entered a STAR and the entire route just dissapeared), and the 78X isn't any better either. You cant populate the fmc with airways, even though it looks like it has gone in. The actual waypoints of the airway hasn't been populated. The list goes on and on.

A long shiny list of not very much if you ask me.

It's great that they added performance boosts, but much of it was already handled by the fps tweaks glass cockpit etc. They added onto it, surely, but the working title of this patch was "the in-sim experience".

Great news shipmate. 

Why don't you use simbiefe for flight plans, then you don't need to enter anything. In a Airbus A320 you use ATSU to request/import a flight plan. So instead of fighting the system import a perfect flight plan. 

One thing that was quickly clear after 2nd patch is that the menu is snappier.

Wow, 37,000 views of a topic only 18 hours old.  I don't think I have ever seen that on these forums - ever,

Short answer is, you don't. Allegedly the models do have seperate doors which theoretically can open, but the function is not enabled in the sim for these models although apparently will happen at some point.

In the meantime, the payware Carenado Cessna 182T does have doors and windows which can open in the sim, the payware Kitfox however, does not.

I do believe you are pulling my leg, but in case I missed something, when you are in the cockpit and you sit there with the FMC or MCDU: are you able to import anything? 

No, you are talking about the load/save function in the world map. Well, what happens when I need to change stuff around when in the sim because of vatsim clearance? 

Ill experiment a bit more with the load save function in world map, but I am not very fond of doing it that way.

Well I don't use VATSIM, but in your case I would use live flight traffic and look at what runways are being used IRL, I would think VATSIM would be most of the time using the same, make your flight in simbrief and load that flight in the map world map and you "should " be good to go. In P3D and PROATC I used what I said and PROATC 9/10 times gave just what I saw happening IRL.

Just trying to save you time and headaches but if you think that's pulling your leg, then just forget what I say. I won't bother again. Sorry.

People that are bench marking FPS etc make sure that the test is very strict as in the same conditions, aircraft, time, weather and airport as the frame rate in this software varies wildly. My own test shows no change whatsoever FPS wise under my own test setup. To others saying they see massive FPS gains its most probably placebo!

Sorry, just having a bit of a bad day, and didn't intend for my grumpiness to spill over on you. Thanks for caring 🙂
